Default Anyone with DigiTails?

Checking to see if anyone here is running currently, or have installed a set of Digitails for the first gen Firebird, or more specifically the '69?

I am looking to upgrade specifically for the safety benefit based on visibility.

My factory tail lights just do not perform in a manner that I am comfortable with during daylight hours, especially in the harsh lighting hours around sunset.

I have NOS lenses that are clear without haze, the housings are clean and the reflective paint still in great shape. I also have new bulbs in new sockets that see just below 14 volts when the engine is running.

Even in about as close to factory condition as possible, the brake light visibility during the day is not adequate for the type and amount of driving I do. Other drivers on the road and highways don't care that the car is 56 years old, they'll tailgate regardless.

That said, the LED panel lighting solves the visibility issue and provides quite a bit quicker illumination. From a safety standpoint, they are really the only option. Any review to their quality, longevity and installation would be really helpful.

Thanks in advance!
